Microsoft has recently announced Windows Copilot, an AI-powered assistant for Windows 11. Windows Copilot sits at the side of Windows 11, and can summarize content you’re viewing in apps, rewrite it, or even explain it. Microsoft is currently testing this internally and promised to release it to testers in June before rolling it out more broadly to Windows 11 users.

It’s referring to a strategy more commonly called ‘triple e’ or ‘embrace, extend, extinguish’ pioneered by Microsoft in the late 90’s.

The bi-cycle is the (involuntary) switch between being attracted to fem people and masc people. Not all bi folks experience it, but it’s fairly common. It’s called the bi-cycle because it tends to be cyclical.
I think it largely depends on the distro. There are two nvidia drivers: the official one which generally works better and nouveau, which is open source.
The instructions from the Debian wiki seem to be pretty thorough. Barring any driver issues, it should just be editing one file to add non-foss repos and installing the drivers through the package manager.
